Secret Crafter

The challenge on the Secret Crafter's blog this week is Now onto this week's challenge which is set by Secret Crafter herself WENDY and she has chosen a theme of:-

CELEBRATION

We want to see any project as long as it could be for a celebration.
What could be easier? There are some fab prizes on offer too as they are celebrating their blogaversary!

Materials: 'cake' paper and glittered vellum - Papermania and everything else is from my stash.
Oh, and the sentiment was done on the lap top

I'm pleased with the way this card turned out as it was made almost entirely from bits on my desk, yes, let your imagination run wild as to the state of it LOL. I haven't even got the courage to put a picture on the What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday. As usual my card is on the simple side (I mean not cluttered, not stupid :)) and the only thing which was used but wasn't on my desk was the vellum and unfortunately I had to cut into a new sheet *:0*, because I didn't have any in my off cuts box!

I may be back later with a couple more cards but I have a stationery order to finish and they are being collected about four oclock.

Take care x

Back again...

...this time with the card I made for the sketch on Di Hickman's blog last week. I do like Di's sketches but often have to miss out (as with other challenges) when work gets the better of me!

I love using acetate on my cards and don't use it nearly enough so I took the chance with this card. I went looking for a quote or something to use as the feature on the sketch and came across my little DCWV Quote Stack which is starting to look a bit forlorn LOL I cut the front off my card leaving a border of approimately 1cm as I like to attach the acetate to it on the inside so once I've added a paper frill there is not tape showing. The ribbons were from my stash, vellum is by Papermania and is glitter embossed (and absolutely beautiful) the acetate and vellum were punched using my newest MS punch which arrived yesterday :), the flowers were from Crafts U Love and the self adhesive pearls were from my stash. I decided not to add a sentiment to the card so it can be used for any occasion.
